.

Contained in Thread 4:

Link to article on Michael Schiavo from hometown newspaper, information on death by starvation and dehydration, information on hospice eligibility and hospice and medicare/medicaid fraud, e-mail address for Judge Greer, transcript of Larry King Live interview with Michael Schiavo and George Felos, Terri's address at the hospice and the address for the foundation, to send cards for Terri's birthday (December 3), transcript of O'Reilly interview with Kate Adamson, e-mail addresses for Florida legislature, transcript of Abrams Report interview with George Felos and Pam Anderson, transcription of Terri's bone scan, legalese for dummies version of Gov.

There are four other relevant posts that I want to highlight here in case anyone missed them or didn't get pinged. These are a general Terri thread troll alert, an especially thoughtful post about the sincere effort that FReepers are making in Terri's behalf, the Father's Love Letter , and remarks made by Jim Robinson on this issue and reposted here by lonevoice.

This thread serves as a place for posting all new general information and references, along with links following Terri's case, plus information on cable news and talk radio shows dealing with the issue, court cases and press releases. This is also the place to post contact information, prayers and general discussion.

If you have something that qualifies as BREAKING NEWS or FRONT PAGE NEWS, please post it on a separate thread in that category in order to give it maximum exposure and then post a link to the article/thread here so that it will be included in the next update of links. Also, if you post links to articles from original sources and there is also a thread on FR, please link to the FR thread. Many original links become corrupt over time and we want to be able to access the information at will.

There was a tremendous amount of information posted on the previous thread. For anyone who hasn't been following the daily threads, links to relevant posts and information from the previous thread are contained in the body of the present one. I have found that very helpful in trying to find something later. You people are doing a spectacular job of getting information out and also in helping to keep all of us updated here. What a great joint effort. This fight, to me, illustrates beautifully what Free Republic is about and what it means to be a FReeper. Way to go FRiends. Keep up the good work!

Hey, don't bust me! Sweet liberty called Janie Weintraub a blonde bimbo first! LOL! FWIW, I know several brunettes and redheads that are bimbos just as much as any blondes. I don't know why blondes are the only ones to get a bad rap!

[nicmarlo]

because they're blond? : )

[Mo1]

Okaaaaaaaaaay ... Bucks county has pretty much squat on the internet

[The Red Zone]

In the eyes of the law, Mrs. Schiavo has already instructed family about her wish to die.

Which, even if the eyes of the law were the eyes of truth (extremely unlikely in this case) is one of the problems. This is far, far too easy.

[nicmarlo]

yep, I've been to that site....nada there.

[sfRummygirl]

Hmmm!
Watch it, nic. ;-)

MS and Terri met and married in Bucks County.

OK .. I did find this .. I have to get the kids in bed but will check some more

There are two articles in the Tampa Tribune on searchwords schiavo and capone, one dated May 10, 2001 and one July 12, 2001.

You have to pay $1.95 per archived article and must get permission to reprint. I found the May 10 article in the google usenet archives but will just post three paragraphs.

Maybe I'm reading too fast, but I missed the part where Capone mentioned the two children, only the part where the lawyer responds no comment. "In a sworn affidavit filed Wednesday, Capone states, ``Michael confided in me all the time about Terri,'' and goes on to say, ``Michael never knew what Terri wanted.'' The affidavit does not state the context in which Schiavo did not know his wife's wishes, and it does not specify when Capone and Schiavo, who are both nurses, shared what Capone characterizes as a close friendship.

"Both women speak of being harassed by Schiavo after breaking off their relationships, and both state that Terri Schiavo seemed aware of her surroundings during the time they knew her.

"Felos would not comment on Capone's statement that, since Terri Schiavo's illness, Michael Schiavo has fathered two children with another woman. Schiavo has acknowledged that he has, for years, been engaged to his current fiancee."

If you want to read the full article (it was posted in its entirety on alt.true-crime (usenet newsgroup) May 10, 2001, here:

ROFL. Why, am I going to be hit with a blond hair strand? : )

[sweetliberty]

"Schiavo vehemently denied these claims on Larry King and said there was no evidence of injuries to support Schindler’s allegations that he tried to strangle Terri that night."

Yeah, all those abnormalities on her bone scan, the stiff neck, oxygen deprivation, clutching her throat.....yeah, those were probably just from a potassium imbalance. Unfreakinbelievable, this guy.

[sfRummygirl]

I should mention I am blonde and part Sicilian....;-)

[nicmarlo]

I'm sorry for you then, doubly. My kids are half Sicilian, too, and my older one is on the blond side, literally. It's a real combination! : )

[wisconsinconservative]

I'm not so sure that the child/affair would have been in PA. I was the one who suggested that maybe the affair happened in PA but according to what I've seen Terri and MS moved to FL in 1986. The child is supposedly 13 or 14 now so that would put the conception around '1989-'90. Unless they went back to their old stomping grounds for a visit, I think FL would be the place to look for child support records. I also saw somewhere that it was the result of an affair with a co-worker but I don't recall now where I read that.
